Pricey Breakfast Food Made at Home

This past weekend my girls and I had a fantastic time celebrating mine and Whitney’s birthdays. I’ll share more of the fun details on Friday’s post, but here’s a little bit of how we spent our three days and two nights together.

We traveled to Whitney’s house and we stayed there, but they had made plans for us to go out and enjoy their favorite restaurants and shops in the area. However, we ate breakfast at Whitney’s house both mornings. Alli was in charge of that meal. She really likes to try new things for that morning meal, and both of her offerings were really good, but the second day was super good!

Lunch – Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

It’s so easy to get into a rut at lunchtime! The choices get old – a sandwich, a cup of soup. or a hot dog. One day when I was searching for lunch ideas, I found this recipe for Asian Chicken Wraps on the Weight Watchers site and I realized that I pretty much always have these ingredients on hand. I buy a rotisserie chicken from Sam’s Club every couple of weeks and cut the meat off the bones and freeze it. Then when I want to make anything with chicken breasts or thighs, it’s so convenient.

The ingredients for these wraps are few – thigh meat chicken, celery, carrots and Hoisin sauce. Eating them on lettuce makes them lighter, and the crunchy lettuce is perfect! Talk about a quick, healthy lunch menu!
